An angel is peeing on your tongue
While visiting overwhelmingly beautiful Saint Helena I had the opportunity to taste espresso coffee at the Wranghams plantation. There I enjoyed a cup of the very best coffee the world has to offer. As we say in The Netherlands: drinking Wranghams coffee is... like an angel peeing on your tongue!

Sea Island Coffee Review
Sea Island Coffee delivers a high-end experience from start to, an average cuppa.
The website is easy to navigate, providing clear details on each coffee, making selection and ordering effortless.
While the prices are on the premium side, the quality and exclusivity of their offerings make a compelling case.
When my order arrived, the presentation was outstanding. The coffee came in stylish tins that exuded luxury, making the unboxing feel like a special occasion. Each tin is individually labelled with an interesting description and brewing recommendations. From packaging to aroma, it was clear I was in for something exceptional...
Puerto Rican, Galápagos & Dominican Republic 250g of each.
The coffee is ok, but leaves you feeling underwhelmed from the price and packaging.
Worth trying if there's a coffee type that really appeals, but hugely overpriced.

Thank you for your review. We're pleased you appreciated the overall experience and enjoyed our gift packaging. We're sorry to hear the taste of the coffees didn’t quite meet your expectations. Taste is deeply personal, and while we aim to showcase some of the world’s rarest and most unique origins, we understand that not every profile will resonate with everyone. If you'd like to explore a different origin in the future, we’d be happy to offer recommendations more tailored to your preferences, but we appreciate the feedback.
'smoothest' coffee ever tasted
My brother stated that this was the 'smoothest' coffee he had ever tasted in his life! A must try!

Way too expensive for the product received. Grind the coffee to a very fine size or you will be drinking colored water. I also felt that the bag was about 1/2 full. Way too expensive for the outcome.

Hi Sam, We're sorry to hear the coffee didn’t fully meet your expectations. Grind size can significantly impact the brewing process - feel free to get in touch for guidance tailored to your brewing method. All our bags are freshly weighed and packed to order, but if you have any concerns about the quantity received, our team would be happy to look into it.
High quality coffee
I ordered a bag of Jamaica Blue Mountain Beans (Cinchona Estate) at £20.8/100g (already 15% off) to make pour-over coffee. The beans are freshly roasted (just one day before despatch) and the flavour is complex, with very bright acidity, citrus and tropical fruit notes and some cocoa (chocolate) flavours.
Overall, the price of this one is a bit high for everyday drink, but so is the quality. I would recommend it if you want a cup of quality coffee.
I also ordered a bag of Costa Rica Venecia Honey Beans at £8/100g and I think these are worth the price and suitable for an everyday drink.
